ATHENS, Ga. --- The ninth-ranked Georgia football team began preparations for this week's matchup with No. 6 LSU by holding a one-hour session in full pads on the Woodruff Practice Fields on Monday.

The Bulldogs are 2-1 overall and 1-0 in the SEC, while the Tigers are 4-0 and 1-0.

Saturday's game will kick off at 3:30 p.m. and will be televised by CBS. Also, ESPN College GameDay will broadcast from Athens starting at 9 a.m.

"We went in full pads today because I felt like we needed to scrimmage a little bit," Georgia coach Mark Richt said. "So that's what we did, and it was good. The boys got a little better today. ... I was pleased with our intensity and our focus. We know we're facing a great opponent this week, and we need to continue to have solid practices."

 CBS has elected to use a six-day selection for the games of Oct. 5, including Georgia at Tennessee. That contest will be at 3:30 p.m. on CBS or 7 p.m. on ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU. CBS is expected to make its selection no later than Sunday afternoon.

 Receiver Reggie Davis was chosen as the SEC Freshman of the Week following the win over North Texas. Davis had two catches for 134 yards, including a school-record 98-yard touchdown reception. He also was named the Athlon Sports SEC Freshman of the Week.
